#the struggle is real tho

Hi! I was just wondering if you have any good fanfic recs? I have been rewatching PPG and craving good extra content, and I've found a handful, but most of it is.... stuff I am not super into lol. I found your blog and it seems like you and I have very similar tastes so I'd love to read anything you have enjoyed!
For some reason, I can’t even find the original post on my own blog (thanks, Tumblr’s barely functional search function! 😩) but @haunting-song (who I will forever credit for finding me this 💖) sent me an archive of some super old fanfics from back in the day from some of the OG PPG fans. I listed some of my favorites on the post I can’t find, which I’ll link to if I can actually find it at some point, but there are some good ones there that are very much like little episodes of the show and are kinda cute!
Otherwise… I dunno, if you find anything, lemme know! 😆 I’m always on the lookout for fanfic that satisfies my longing for something cool that isn’t one of the popular ships/ultra edgy and grimdark/a crossover, but those seem to be some of the more popular genres. I’m sure there’re some other gems out there somewhere!
#also if you check out the pokey oaks library on my pinned post the books are WONDERFUL little official fics 🤣#the struggle is real tho#I feel ya#fanfic

Listening to wordless music with baby sensory dancing fruits in the background is the right way to study.
I swear the stars have to align for me to be in good enough hw conditions- I had to put on baby sensory in my peripheral vision to give the illusion of activity similar to a classroom BUT not too close or I'll get distracted by it. I also had provide good lighting or else my vibes will be fucked and I'll get sad halfway through. I added wordless music to further provide good vibes without being a distraction. I also have to stand or get on my knees at my desk. If I sit in bed, my brain will go into lazy sleep mode. All these factors have to be perfectly put in place or that work is n o t getting done at home.
Homework is hard.
#all this is said in a very jokey and lighthearted way btw#I'm smiling and chuckling#the struggle is real tho#homework#adhd

The entire idea of "talking to someone about a show you both like but it turns out theyre normal about and youre obsessed" is SO real with pnf cuz there's SUCH a difference between "i watched and enjoyed it as a kid" and "ive spent the last 12 years of my life learning the entire script to this show by heart" and it gets SOO embarrassing sometimes lmao
#a real struggle (its not really tbf)#but fr tho i LOVE quoting amy obscure scene i feel like at any time#phineas and ferb#pnf#shitpost

That. That screentone on Chilchuck’s chest in the low open collar. Is Chilchuck having chest hair canon Kui. Kui? Gripping my knee
#Need to make a post for this on its own actually#Chilchuck tims#Dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#‘She didn’t draw any in the sauna chapter’ She does the same with Senshi and we know that she thinks he actually has lots#It could also be finer/paler etc. This panel is a close up with a lot of details like seams#plus it’s one of the final chapters so Kui prob had more time and motivation to go all out#Bc like what. Is it blood from the intestines. If his forearms are fine I don’t see why his chest wouldn’t be#Never forget Chil canonically has gray hairs…… Just selectively#Edit: ok I now see that yeah prob a mistake. Still gonna run with it tho#Screentone struggle is so real I feel u Kui#The tags were me explaining why it’s plausible but still not the intent tho the result is the same either way. Don’t wanna spread misinfo

In the middle of this I was heavily reminded of the reason why I told myself I'd never draw Genshin palette swaps again, but the swaps always turn out so nice, but they suck to draw, but they're so fun.........father HELP
#Anyway Nahida's was a REAL struggle but Scara's was very easy thankfully lol#Nahida's turned out soooo nice tho she looks so good in a black dress#Genshin Impact#Nahida#Scaramouche#Wanderer#Palette swap#Color swap#Shima arts#Digital art#Art#ALSO can I say how fucking WEIRD Genshin proportions are#I had to fix them as I was drawing bc it looked so off fnadnkasmd#Like their hands and feet are always SO tiny. And their legs are always way too long#Their models are so disproportionate 😭#a-person-in-the-rain#shima-draws

I love how over time kid xelqua has become less just baby grian and more grian's kid who he found in the woods/somehow created and now the kid represents all of grian's childhood trauma and Catholic guilt and grian is just trying to break the cycle bc there's this magic fucking baby who is the best thing in the world
JKAGJKD yes Exactly, see evo Grian has a lot of family issues, from being an orphan, to the Watchers, he has ISSUES, so raising a version of himself is..... definitely odd, but weirdly healing.. He sees how he was as a kid, he wasn't that bad, he was just a kid ! He didn't deserve to be abandoned or anything. He sees all of his ache in Xelqua, he's very much breaking the cycle.
[mumbo: You alright mate, you have that look in your eyes. grian: no yeah--i'm good, i just.... its easy to raise him, y'know ? i mean, i know he's literally me, but.. it makes me wonder about my own parents--before the watchers, if i was anything like him, i don't know why they left] (-me)
#i was gonna go to bed but then i doodled this real quick ajgadjk#grian and family issues makes me go crazy#my art#ask#sketching#kidxelqua#grians already a big brother. pearls his younger sister ! he had to raise her since they're close in age.-#-and even tho you love someone. you can still ache for the loss of childhood. its not a kids responsibility to take care of another alone#pearl and grian were close in age so they were just kids together. they had a Us against Them dynamic#grian and xelqua have a struggle and adjustments to figure out#figure xelqua out. hes a kid. but not human(hermit-)#i like to imagine at first. grian would just stand to talk to xelqua. but later he starts crouching down to his height#<- IMPORTANT !! i did this a lot when working with kids and ur their best friend immediately WAHHH#i always draw aether crouching down to talk to xelqua#grian catching watcher baby fever hahahahaaha

"Why am I still doing this?"
"Don't you get it?"
"This is all just a show... and we're playing parts~"
#junie art post#utmv#ink sans#swap sans#dream sans#yea that lyric is from the undertale musical... it was fitting#anyways#you know how back then star sanses were 'fight evil (bad sanses) do good!!' i mean... it still is. but back then it was more...innocent?#*looks at the steven universe star sanses cover i saved on my phone*#ultimately tho...how much do u think ink plays along with that as nothing more than a script given to him#because really. ink is more of a stagehand than a stage performer#and for ink that job comes with knowledge that makes it hard to perform#like you guys ever think more about how ink struggles to view the people around him as “real” (like him) and not characters?#i think about it a lot.#especially. in his 'star sanses' era#to me theres always this nonchalance(?) he treats other sanses 'backstory' and maybe the character themself if he interacts with them#because he cant really treat them as 'real' people#you get what i mean???#THAT DOESNT MEAN HE STAYS LIKE THIS FOREVER. HE CAN GET DEVELOPMENT. LOOK AT ZEPHYRTOP RP. PRIME EXAMPLE.#you see i imagine star sanses as like this cute tv show like madoka magica. starts off cute. ends with you in a crisis#dream is easily the protag in my eyes. comes out with no clue how long its been and explores with fresh eyes. meets swap. meets ink#then they fight evil! cool multiverse exploration! undertale shenanigans!!!!#dream and swap go thru their character arcs#and ink stays suspiciously stagnant#until we get THIS reveal and theres that implication that hes been also behind the scenes nudging things along to 'improve the story'#'anything for the entertainment of the Creators!'#ISNT THAT MESSED UP?? ISNT THAT G R E A T#utmv fanart#ink!tale#underswap

so was this the neurodivergent friendship problems episode or what
#miraculous ladybug#marigami#marinette#kagami#perfection#neurodivergent#autism#adhd#audhd#mlb#mlb s5#mlb caps#mlb capspam#like this was just too real#if i'd seen this ep when it came out i would've been like hahaha they are being so silly and literal who does that?? why am i crying?#bc it's depicted in such an OTT way#and i was still in denial and i still struggle to articulate my own feelings#but wow @ all of this#down to worrying about whether anyone cares about you as much/how to be a “best friend”#i feel like it really does take a superhero(ine) to handle the intensity of those kinds of feelings tho idek#but then mari being like “i'm the problem” at the end is perfect too lolol#i am both of these people and it's why i'm so dysfunctional lmao
